Class file Write your name – and how to pronounce your first name What languages you know and how well Why you are in this course Write 1 thing you already know about SLA Write 1 question you hope this course answers

What is language? Language sample Who is talking? How can you tell? What is being talked about?

Functions of Language Interactional – used primarily to establish and maintain social relations Transactional - to transmit knowledge, skills or information Direct communication – intentional – often direct factual type statements Indirect communication – inferential – involves metaphors and idioms

First Language Acquisition Vocalizations Sound differentiation Words Sentences Meta-linguistic awareness

Stages by age By 1 year By 2 years 3-4 years By 4 years

Developmental Sequences Children learn language in predictable patterns, developmental sequences. Related to cognitive development mastery of linguistic elements for expressing ideas which the child has understood for some time

Theories of Language Acquisition Behaviorism language learning - the result of imitation, practice, feedback, and habit formation. Innatism children are biologically programmed for language Interactionism Language development - result of complex interplay between child and environment

Interactionism (cont.) Piaget – language is a symbol system used to represent knowledge that children have acquired through physical interaction with the environment. Vygotsky – language develops entirely from social interaction. Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) - difference between what a learner can do without help and what he/she can do with help.
